Cheers Ragga,
Me too I can make that out and the M&B logo. Thanks for the input.
 
To me the first pub reminded me of The New Inns in Erdington...but it's prob not haha;)
 
I think the sign on the first pub says "The Wellington Arms". but I have no idea where it is.

Postied. I,ve said it before, and I will say it again. You are brilliant. No matter what anyone wants to know, you manage to come up trumps. Well done. Barry.
 
Bazz, Just picked up my copy of 'Time Please' by Andrew Maxam (already recommended elsewhere on this site) and found those pics on pages 119 and 120.
The view of the Freeholders, Hawkes Street, was taken on 25.02.65, and the pub closed on 31.03.74 for demolition and redevelopment of the site.
The view of the Wellington, Muntz Street/Dawson Street was taken about 1960, and the pub was closed at the same time - 31.03.74.

Thanks

Thanks Postied and Peter for your help, I didn't have a clue of what they were called.
Cheers Carl.
 
I recognised them instantly, as my Dad frequented both regularly!!

I lived in Hawkes Street, and the 'Freeholders' was about half way up the street.
The Wellington was in Muntz Street, just on the corner of Dawson Street, and Muntz street.
